About us
Venu enables hospitality customers to sign-up, earn, and redeem rewards directly on the payment terminal - reducing friction at the point of sale. Customers opt-in with a single tap to link their payment card across your venues, and we collect their contact details when they redeem their first reward. Venu increases your customer database for direct-to-customer marketing, and integrates with your existing email marketing platforms and digital ad accounts. Venu is part of the Startmate Summer 2024 cohort. We're currently a team of two founders, Kieran and James, with plans to grow our team soon. To learn more you can reach us at hello@venuhq.com

Imagine a world without independent bars, restaurants or cafes. It would be pretty sad. Thankfully, Venu | Startmate S24 founders Kieran Gardiner and James McArthur are on a mission to level the playing field for independent hospitality businesses. Venu brings the scale and marketing sophistication of big-brand reward clubs, to small hospitality businesses, globally. Within just ten weeks, these founders have built both their member and merchant products, signed up 18 businesses and had 86% of business owners screaming "yes" in their first meeting. Read up on their journey through the Summer'24 Accelerator and then come meet them at 🚀 Demo Day (at Blackbird's Sunrise Festival) 🚀 in Sydney on Thursday 2 May. Shout out to Stephanie Palmer-Derrien for an excellent write-up. Tickets for DD available here: https://lu.ma/summer24 https://lnkd.in/gm5ciNRN
